Cycling infrastructure does not force drivers to break the law, drivers are the reason they break the law, no one else.

2015 Sagan is obviously taking a different approach to the Vuelta from the one 2014 Sagan took...
Holy crap, I won the Purist stage!
1,3,4 in standard.
1,3,4,5 in purist.
Can't believe I didn't get in Bouhanni!
That did not go well as I dont have Drucker and everyone else seems to!!!
Just 1,2,3,6
DVP did nothing either! Drucker in tomorrow if i can afford
1,2,3,4,
Nacer Bouhanni drops back to his Cofidis team car with a slight technical problem. The Frenchman would ordinarily be among the favourites for today but he hurt his knee in the crash yesterday. He told lavuelta.com he was up for it today but his DS said it might be wiser to wait for another day. Will we see him take it on and, if so, can he pull it off?
#LV2015 Omar Fraile won the 1st KOM of the day. The gap is around 3' after 20 kilometres.
4 changes made, might keep this as it is until stage 7.
JOHN DEGENKOLB (TGA)
JOSE JOAQUIN ROJAS GIL (MOV)
JEAN-PIERRE DRUCKER (BMC)
DANIEL MARTIN (TCG)
CALEB EWAN (OGE)
PETER SAGAN (TSB)
JOHAN ESTEBAN CHAVES (OGE)
NICOLAS ROCHE (SKY)
PETER VELITS (BMC)
#LV2015 Break: S. Chavanel, Tjallingii, Pedraza, M.Velits, Gougeard, Fraile, Berhane and Koshevoy. Lead: 2'15". On the 1st climb now.
#LaVuelta Chavanel, Pedraza, Tjallingii and M Velits with a small gap after 2K
But genius at the same time
Chaves
Degenkolb
Drucker
Bouhanni
DVP
Ewan
Rijas
Sagan
Berhane
